Gnwl means general waiting list when you go to buy the ticket you get this and prior to your ticket booking because of cancellations you are in waiting list number 7 this is your current status gnwl status will not change but your current status will change as more cancellations of tickets happen like if your ticket gets confirmed GNWL 12 remain same but in place of WL 7 you will see CNF means your ticket is confirmed and you cn get your sit number 2-3 hours prior to departure of the train.

Waiting List (WL): If the passenger status is marked as WL followed by a number then the passenger has a waitlisted status. This can get confirm only if the passengers who have booked before you for the same journey cancel their ticket. For example if the status is GNWL 4 / WL 3 , then this means that you have a waiting list of 3 (the latter number) and your ticket will get confirmed only if 3 passengers who have booked before you for the same journey happen to cancel their journey.

Generally, the GNWL means the General Waiting List. GNWL 36 means that is your original number when you buy your ticket. If someone or any passenger cancel their ticket your GNWL will change. So if your ticket is GNWL 36 will change to GNWL 35 but the WL 9 will not change.

GNWL means waitlisted ticket and RAC/44 means its A RAC ticket. With waitlisted ticket you cannot board the train but with RAC ticket you will be able to board the train. You will be allowed Seats but no Berth.
